The Client:
An “Inc. 500”, scaling software and consulting company helping its enterprise customers grow
The Story:
We were introduced by a common connection that thought we could help each other. We hit it off at our first coffee meeting.
She was co-founding a new business and soon after that first meeting, we received a call that she wanted us to help her with the contracts for her new business.
We were elated and signed the company on as a client.
The Results:
The company went on to grow rapidly over the following three-year period during which time we helped the client with 45+ matters including:
- establishing an efficient contract process and drafting related master services agreement + statements of work.
- drafting a contract playbook for the sales team to ensure the sales team understands the importance of the contract terms and protection of confidential information and intellectual property.
- drafting a legal playbook for contracts and alternate provisions to ensure uniformity in contract negotiations and provide clear guidance around internal escalation procedures.
- assisting client with Safe Harbor Certification.
- helping protect their intellectual property by preparing + filing trademark applications for their logo + tagline.
- negotiating leases for the company’s expansion and growing team.
- assisting client with compliance with the EU-US Privacy Shield framework, and amendment to existing contracts to ensure compliance when transferring personal data between countries.
- assessing existing contracts with third party partners for recommended updates.
